MY DAD MIGHT DIE DUE TO THE 'NO BLOOD' DOCTRINE
by Mary in

2. medical
i don't have much time to post as i'm headed back to the hospital, but my father collapsed this morning and had to be rushed to the hospital.

in a nutshell: he needs a blood transfusion as his hemoglobin is dropping (bleeding internally), but thanks to this fucking cult, that's not an option...........he'll accept the fractions but those bastards from the blood liaison committee have already shown up to ensure he doesn't cave............... for those of you who still believe, i'm asking you to say a prayer for my dad........and if anyone from crooklyn is reading this: you better hope my father doesn't die due to your fucked up rules, .

Blaming People for their Cancer
by rebel8 in
1. jw
2. friends
just heard someone has cancer, and the dubbies are busy trying to determine which by type of "immorality" the person gave themselves cancer.

having been on the receiving end of this most heartless behavior in the past, i theorized: .

(a) they never miss an opportunity to point out they're morally superior, so they can fuel their very fragile egos.

by AuldSoul in
1. jw
2. friends
i have been trying to sort this out scripturally, and would like to get input from christians on how these two concepts differ and/or overlap.

please be liberal with scriptures to support statements.

i think there may be others who are trying to figure this out for themselves, too.

Why do witnesses intentionally avoid having kids?
by NotaNess in
1. jw
2. friends
1) don't want to deal with it at meetings is what i think would be on the top of the list.they see what others have to go through.. 2) i know a married couple jws, that are avoiding having kids, and i've heard of reasons from them like.... "don't want to raise them up in this system".

"time is too short".

"i'll wait until the next system of things".

Anyone Else from Canada?

1. jw
2. experiences
i'm really intrigued by that fact that i may know some of you and yet not know that i know you.

i just want to know how many people from canada are here.

if you don't mind and don't care about posting your province (cause i'm too timid to) we could all get an idea of just how many canucks are really out there.
